Online Metals.

You haven't provided enough information to quote a price. In particular, the kind of steel is going to make a significant difference, as will your location. Check those Websites, and others (Google is your friend), and even your local hardware store, for pricing.

Also, check your local hardware store or home center. They may well have something that will do what you need, and what you pay in tax you save in shipping.
